About the artwork

In the gentle arms of the south-west French sky, the coastal lake of Hourtin shows itself in a sensual dance of the sun. Its golden rays weave through the shallow waters, an enchanting ballet on the mirror of the soul of this largest of Aquitaine's coastal lakes.

The sun, a tender lover of water, caresses the surface of the lake with its warm fingers. Each of its gentle touches leaves a shimmering promise as it glides over the waves in a sensual rhythm. The waves respond in a gentle sway, as if they have fallen for the sun's kisses.

In this enchanted moment, the water is transformed into a luminous mosaic of golden tones. The reflections play with each other, dancing in a harmonious symphony of light and shadow. The sun conjures up secret patterns on the surface of the lake, as if it were painting an invisible canvas with the brushes of the day.

The colours of the sky marry with those of the water, and the boundaries between heaven and earth blur in a sensual dance. The lake becomes a shimmering carpet of warm golden tones that envelops the senses and transports us into a world of harmony.

It is as if nature itself is staging a seductive waltz in which the sun is the undisputed queen, ruling the waters with radiant elegance.

The sun dances on the waters of Lake Hourtin, its radiant kisses painting a vivid picture of splendour and warmth. In this sensual moment, sky and water merge into a living love story, and the world loses itself in the beguiling charm of this golden spectacle.
